I notice you said "plenty" which means that you admit that not all have total aid packages and I also know plenty who had better grades than their wealthy friends and still could not pay tuition even after exhausting student loans. So stop trying to make yourself feel better by sicking your head in the sand.
Additionally, most of the wealthy have a free ride as they do not have student loan debt after college, while those less fortunate have a huge debt when they first get out of college. This means, hypothetically, if two equal individuals got jobs at the same place, the wealthy person would end up with more money even if their pay rate was the same. So how is this equal opportunity again?
Oh, and don't try to pull out the few exceptions where the employer pays the unpaid student loans. Those against equal opportunity love to point out the rare occasions where things worked out right. That argument is a just a cheap tactic meant to deceive those who don't know any better.
Again ... is this equal opportunity? ..... ?
a free ride because they can pay their way?
